Slang SurveyWhat new bit of language are you hearing at the moment? We want to hear words and phrases, with definitions and where it's being used. We're interested in marketing speak, stuff from kids in playgrounds etc.

Choob (also "tube")the best insult ever. As in that fine, nurturing Edinburgh sentence: "Don't talk sh*te, ya choob".
Regional differences can be puzzling. A Yorkshire mate of mine once anounced in a pub that he was going for a wazz. Apparently, he meant a pee and not the act we'd always used "wazz" for, viz and towhit shaking hands with Lord Hutton.
Another favourite: face like a bulldog licking piss off a nettle.
